Biography:

Helder Filipe Gonçalves was born in Castelo Branco in 1976. At the Conservatory of this city he finished the Complementary Piano Course. After a time at the Hot Clube Portugal Jazz School, he completed his degree in Composition at the Escola Superior de Música de Lisboa, where he worked with Christopher Bochmann, António Sousa Dias and António Pinho Vargas, among others. He later completed a Post-Graduation in Educational Technologies at the Faculty of Psychology and Educational Sciences of the University of Lisbon. He completed PhD seminars in Communication Sciences at the New University of Lisbon, where he worked on a thesis related to acousmatic music in audiovisual contexts, oriented by Prof. Dr. Tomás Henriques. After moving to the University of Beira Interior he concluded his PhD in Communication Sciences with a thesis on sound in contemporary Portuguese cinema, under the guidance of Prof. Dr. Vasco Diogo. He is professor of Sound Laboratory and Sound Design in the UBI courses of Cinema, Multimedia Design and Digital Game Development. He’s been teaching Composition and A.T.C. at the Conservatories of Covilhã, Fundão and Belmonte. He taught Orchestration, Auditory Training, Acoustics and Sound for Video and Multimedia at ESART (IPCB). In his compositions it is easy to find programmatic intentions, as well as the influence of music for cinema and cinematographic structuring processes. He tends to value the listener’s experience as a means of enriching the sound results, metaphorically and/or in the relationships with images and narrative. It has made several arrangements, also music and sound for experimental films. He has assiduously created sound effects and musical compositions for plays premiered by Teatro das Beiras (Covilhã).
